we all love a safe place to chill out in!
in this class we will design a house or apartment for our fellow lizards to live in using slabs of clay, cookie cutters, texture tools and colored clay slip.
we’ll add windows, a door, maybe a chimney, some flowers, a roof and anything else your lizards might desire.
2 hour session — open to ages 5-10

neurodivergent? no problem.
gleaning from lived experiences as a self-proclaimed weirdo and professional training with the NSU Center for Autism and Related Disabilities (NSU-CARD), Liza has developed a variety of methods to use clay as a guide and comfort for kids who may otherwise have a hard time in more stimulating environments.
everybody’s welcome here.
liza q. furr
(e)liza quinn furr is a lifelong floridian, multidisciplinary artist and lizard lover with a decade-long relationship with clay. she began making pots and throwing on the wheel in 2014 while studying at the university of north florida, where she earned a B.A. in sociology with a minor in ceramic arts. she taught at several art studios and museums throughout broward county before launching dirty lizard studio in august 2023.
liza usually pinches and coils clay into everyday objects (talking about a real form-and-function type of person) but occasionally can be found hopping on the wheel when she’s looking for a little excitement.
